🐢 RallyHelper – Lightweight World Buff Tracker for Turtle WoW

RallyHelper is a minimalistic, safe, and community‑friendly world buff tracker built specifically for Turtle WoW.
It focuses on accuracy, transparency, and zero spam, without unnecessary features or heavy UI frameworks.


What RallyHelper Does

  • Tracks Onyxia, Nefarian, ZG Heart, DMF, and Warchief’s Blessing
  • Reliably detects NPC yells in Stormwind and Orgrimmar
  • Confirms events only when multiple players agree
  • Displays a clean, compact UI with cooldowns and last‑seen timers
  • Shares timers safely through a dedicated sync channel
  • Survives broken Lua environments (SuperAPI, LazyPig, etc.)
  • Stays lightweight — no map markers, no warnings, no noise

🔄 How Synchronization Works

RallyHelper uses a multi‑user verification system to ensure accuracy:

  • Yell‑based events → require 2 confirmations
  • Sync‑based events (TIMER_*) → require 5 confirmations
  • Prevents fake timers, ghost timers, and manipulation
  • Ensures only widely‑agreed data is accepted

Players can request timers manually:

/rally request

RallyHelper also requests timers automatically on login.


⚠️ Known Addon Incompatibilities

LazyPig

LazyPig modifies global Lua functions and chat hooks, which can interfere with RallyHelper’s event parsing.

Common symptoms:

  • Timers not syncing
  • Confirmed events not processed
  • REQ/TIMER sync not working

If you experience issues, try disabling LazyPig.

Safe Addons

  • SuperWoW / SuperWoWAPI — fully compatible
  • pfUI — fully supported (RallyHelper includes compatibility fixes)

📦 Installation

  1. Download the latest release from GitHub
  2. Extract it into your Turtle WoW Interface/AddOns folder
  3. Ensure the folder is named RallyHelper
  4. Launch the game — RallyHelper joins its channel automatically

🧭 Navigation


❤️ Philosophy

RallyHelper is intentionally:

  • lightweight
  • transparent
  • safe
  • community‑driven

It will never become a worldbuff guide, planner, or warning system.
It stays a simple, reliable tracker — nothing more.
